Hi

When sarting with DataImport External DataEdit Query, you are allowed to
set filter conditions, and sorting order.

Or, in query wizard, you can enter filter conditions and set sorting orders
in special filter/sort rows of wizard (maybe you have to say wizard to show
them before).

Or, in query wizard, you select SQL view from menu, and edit SQL-string
yourself.
